Do I need to retrain my AI?

AI retraining needed when adding sources, changing config, copying bots, or updating marketplace strategies. Otherwise unnecessary.

Once your AI is trained, you typically do not need to retrain it. However, retraining is required in the following specific situations:

When Retraining Is Required

Adding New Trading Sources

  • When: You have added a new data source to your AI configuration

  • Action: Train only the new source - do not retrain existing sources

  • Reason: Training existing sources again would create duplicate calculations and negatively impact AI performance

AI Configuration Changes

  • When: You have made adjustments to your AI settings or performed an AI reset

  • Action: Retrain all trading pairs completely

  • Examples: Changing profit percentage targets, modifying time-based parameters, or adjusting risk settings

Bot Migration

  • When: You have copied your AI configuration to use in a different bot with different markets

  • Action: Complete retraining for the new market environment

  • Reason: Different markets require specific training data to function optimally

Marketplace Strategy Updates

  • When: Your AI strategy includes a marketplace strategy with auto-update functionality, and that strategy receives updates

  • Action: Retrain your entire AI to incorporate the updated strategy

  • Critical: This step ensures your AI operates according to the latest rules and logic from the updated marketplace strategy

  • Consequence: Skipping this retraining may result in suboptimal AI performance

Strategy Update Integration

  • Process: When you retrain after marketplace strategy updates, the training process applies all modifications to every specific coin in your setup

  • Importance: Without retraining, marketplace strategy updates will not automatically apply to individual coins

  • Risk: Failing to retrain can cause inconsistencies in trading behavior and missed trading opportunities

Summary

Retraining is only necessary when your AI configuration changes, new sources are added, or when marketplace strategies are updated. Regular retraining without these triggers is unnecessary and may harm performance.
